World War Z Getting A Video Game Adaption Too?

Max Brooks’ novel World War Z will hit the big screen next year and sometime around June 21, 2013 we might see another zombie apocalypse video game too. Paramount Pictures filed a trademark for World War Z in the U.S. with only one classification – downloadable electronic game program, electronic game software, and video game cartridges/discs.

Paramount has been moving into the interactive entertainment space with titles like War of the Worlds and the Star Trek video game, which Namco Bandai will distribute.

The film went through several changes (maybe some major) that I just lost track what they were doing. I know they pushed the release date back at least a couple times and added a new writer in what felt like the last minute.

Avoid movie to game adaptations.

Its good for you, its good for the industry.

Sure it wont stop them from trying to exploiting a name, wont really promote them to put in the effort but…

Naw. Its just a general lose-lose.

…Wait, the film is still in the works?

I’m kinda scared to watch it at this point, considering how much of a fan I was of the book.
